ask lama, he did the same as you are going to do, he has 100/100 mbit connection, and his servers run fine
also: ur crap pc is just fine for a server tbh

upload speed is more important, I would say mninimum of 25 KB/s per slot.

so 300 KB/s for 12 slots so 2400 kbps, test it on www.speedtest.net and higher is always better ofc if you want do download or upload stuff whent he serevr is running.

best thing is to set a netlimiter on both the server and ur own PC so the server doesn't start lagging when you are downloading porn and stuff.
